Study Summary

This investigator-initiated study will serve as a sub-study for the American College of Rheumatology-sponsored VERVE protocol currently funded by the NIH. This double-blinded multicenter randomized pragmatic trial is designed to determine whether Zostavax or Shingrix are safe and effective in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) currently using anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) therapies. Inclusion/exclusion criteria for this sub-study mirror that of the parent VERVE trial with the exception of abatacept therapy being allowed. Preliminary data from the VERVE parent protocol enrolling patients using anti-TNF therapy is encouraging in that few patients experienced adverse events (56 adverse events in 50 participants, out of 140 participants in total) and that 96.2% of these adverse events were considered either mild or moderate. Importantly, there have been no instances of vaccine dissemination or zoster events to date.
